About this Unit

105th military intelligence

U.S. Army

The 105th Military Intelligence Battalion was activated in 1981 as part of the 24th Infantry Division at Fort Stewart, Georgia. Its mission was to provide tactical intelligence support, including signals, human, and counterintelligence operations, to enhance the division’s combat effectiveness. The unit deployed during Operation Desert Storm in 1991, where it played a key role in gathering and analyzing intelligence on enemy forces. Following several reorganizations, the 105th Military Intelligence Battalion was inactivated in 1996 as part of Army force reductions and restructuring.
